Former Arsenal target Josip Drmic produced a contender for miss of the World Cup after completely fluffing a cheeky chip attempt during Switzerland’s last-16 clash against Argentina.

The talented striker, who was heavily linked with the Gunners before completing a move to Bayer Leverkusen, was sent scampering clean through on goal late in the first-half, only to tamely chip straight at a clearly panicked Sergio Romero.

Drmic’s chance was by far the best from a largely lifeless first-half, with Granit Xhaka spurning the only other clear opportunity when his side-foot attempt was kept out by Romero’s feet after 26 minutes.
